Randomized Controlled Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy of Digital Breast Tomosynthesis in Reggio Emilia Breast Cancer Screening Program in the 45-74 Age Group
Abstract
Randomized trial comparing the performance of tomosynthesis and 2D Digital Mammography vs 2D Digital Mammography only in respect to incidence of advanced cancers (interval and following round) and interval cancers.
Conditions: Breast Cancer.
Primary outcome: cumulative incidence of T2+ cancers after screening; incidence of interval cancers.
Enrollment: 26877 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 26,877 participants or records.
